When LnCaP cells are pretreated with AKT inhibitor VIII and then incubated with TRAIL, a dramatic increase in caspase-3 activity (6-10-fold relative to control or TRAIL alone) is observed. This sensitization of tumor cell lines with AKT inhibitor VIII is not limited to LnCaP cells as similar apoptosis induction is observed in HT29, MCF7, and A2780 cells, among others, with chemosensitizers such as camptothecin, herceptin, and doxorubicin[1]. The furanodiene-induced decrease of p-Akt and Akt expressions is enhanced by the Akt inhibitor VIII pretreatment. Furthermore, the furanodiene-induced PARP cleavage is enhanced by Akt inhibitor VIII pretreatment. The Akt inhibitor VIII shows no effect on cleaved PARP expression but decreases the p-Akt and Akt expressions[2]. AKT inhibitor VIII decreases cell viability and increases phosphatidylserine (PS) translocation to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, DNA fragmentation, Caspase-9 cleavage, Caspase-3 activation and PARP proteolysis in hESC lines WA01 (H1) and WA09 (H9) and in a hiPSCs cell line generated in our laboratory (FN2.1)[3].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 20 mg/mL (36.26 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 1 year; -20°C, 6 months. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 1 year. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 6 months.

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2 mg/mL (3.63 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

The co-solvents required include: DMSO, . All of co-solvents are available by MedChemExpress (MCE). , Tween 80. All of co-solvents are available by MedChemExpress (MCE).
Working solution concentration: 0.22 mg/mL
Method for preparing stock solution: mg drug dissolved in μL DMSO. Stock solution concentration: mg/mL.
1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .
μL , mix evenly;
3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
PSC are plated onto Matrigel coated 96-well plates at densities between 1×103-3×105 cells per well and grown until confluence. 24 hours post-treatments, 50 μg/well of activated 2,3-bis (2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-5 [(phenylamino) carbonyl]-2 H-tetrazolium hydroxide(XTT) in PBS containing 0.3 μg/well of N-methyl dibenzopyrazine methyl sulfate (PMS) are added (final volume 100 μL) and incubated for 1-2 hours at 37°C. Cellular metabolic activity is determined spectrophotometrically at 450 nm.
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
